You cannot play expecting to get injured in any sport. That is not a vaiable reason for not playing. The only reason to not play is if he thinks he can not contribute. I have a feeling he could be a huge factor for the sweedish run. They got enough star power and hard working guys to win but lack the depth of Canada. If Kron is their 6th or 7th Defensmen it could make all the difference in finshing 4th or 1st.

Tootoo does NOT belong on this team. He is classless and I would rather see the Wings be bad than classless. I feel the same way about Bertuzzi as well, but he at least CAN make the team better. With Tootoo the team becomes worse and in danger of being classless. Would you have liked Claude on the team? Or Roy? No. So why would you be okay with that POS.

Let him play. It's an extra opportunity for Kronwall to get his wheels back before the playoffs. In addition, I really want the Swedes to medal this year 'cause it would be a huge morale booster for the Wings, and if Kronwall is part of that and he ends up being a big contributor, it'll be an even bigger boost. So I say go for it.
